Atlantic
Salcombe, Devon. — At 9.20 in the morning, on the 17th of April, 1950, the Greystones coastguard reported that a motor fishing boat seemed to be in difficulties three and a half miles west of Bolt Head. At 10.9 the life- boat Samuel and Marie Parkhouse was launched in a rough sea with a fresh south-westerly breeze blowing. She found the local motor fishing boat Atlantic, with one man on board, anchored to a crab pot. Her engine had broken down. The life-boat towed her to harbour and reached her station again at 12.30 that afternoon. The father of the rescued man made a donation to the Institution.—Rewards, £7 10s..
